Longest Hitch Extender with Highest Capacity for Dolly Towing Vehicle Behind Motorhome
Question:
I have a Fleetwood RV with a hydro motorcycle lift on the back. I am able to also pull a car. I have a car dolly that I tow a Honda accord. I do not believe the car dolly has a lot of tong weight. I need the longest 2inch extension available for my 10,000 lb. rated receiver. What would be the strongest one you have and the longest I can get? Thanks

Expert Reply:
The longest hitch extension for a 2 inch receiver with the highest towing capacity is the # ST18 from Reese. The extender has a 3,500 lb towing capacity. Keep in mind that using an extender like this particular one will lower your hitch towing and tongue weight capacity by one-third. The tongue weight shouldn't be an issue, because car dollies typically don't have a tongue weight much more than 100 lbs. The weight of the car plus the weight of the dolly couldn't exceed the 3500 lb towing capacity of the extender. If you click the provided link, you can see a product description video for the extender I've recommended.
